If you received the disk vendor version of our distribution disk
containing PERSNUM.ZIP instead, then unzip this file first in an empty
sub-directory. Then, to create a single NUMROLGY.ZIP file, execute the
two self-extracting files, CPDISK1.EXE and CPDISK2.EXE that were
extracted during the unzip operation. Do NOT use the INSTALL.BAT file
that is extracted. Then ZIP all the resulting files, EXCEPT the
INSTALL.BAT file, which is NOT REQUIRED FOR BBS USE. See PACKING.LST

USER COMMENTS: The following comments taken from registration cards are
typical of Personal Numerologist users:
"I am very impressed with the reports."
"Great fun to include Personal Numerologist reports for engagement,
wedding and new baby gifts!"
"Your manual is excellent!"
SOFTWARE REVIEWS: The following software reviews are for the professional
version of Personal Numerologist, Numerologist Report Writer. This
commercially sold program produces a report similar to Personal
Numerologist but offers additional features for those planning to sell
reports as part of a small business. These reviews are included here
because the program designs, interfaces and reports are so similar.
(Complete review reprints are available upon request.)
"It's easily the best character analysis type of numerology report
I've seen yet, all things considered. I recommend it highly."
Richard Nolle, Dell HOROSCOPE, March 1987
"I ran several names of friends and relatives. Most were quite
surprised that a computer report could detail their hidden selves so
accurately."
Connie L. Faubel, Transformation Times, April 1987
"This software is written as all software should be, but most is
not. The directions are clear and concise, its ease of use is no
less than phenomenal, and the documentation is the best I have seen
in a long time. Counselors in every field can find uses for the
reports produced."
Carl Ogden, SSC Booknews, March 1987
"The report's valuable and accurate information is presented in a
style that is easy to understand and synthesizes factors for you. It
is the best numerology program I have ever seen."
Hank Friedman, Todays' Astrologer, March 1992
COMPANY BACKGROUND: Widening Horizons, Inc. has been in business since
1984 and has committed its entire efforts to the field of numerology,
creating a complete line of sophisticated, but easy-to-use programs.
Up to now, these programs were only available commercially. However,
with the introduction of Personal Numerologist and Intimacy we are
bringing our expertise to the shareware world. An earlier version of
Personal Numerologist -- with less features -- was offered in the
Selective Software catalog. Our programs have consistently received
outstanding reviews by the press serving the astrology and numerology
marketplace.
PROGRAM START: After running the INSTALL program (not necessary if using
a ZIPed file), Personal Numerologist is started from the DOS prompt by
entering the command: PN. All options, including screen color
selection and printer selection, are done from within the program
using function keys. The program contains detailed on-line
instructions and context sensitive help. Although a comprehensive
manual is included, it is not necessary to refer to it to operate the
program.
UNIQUE PROGRAM AND PROMOTIONAL FEATURES: Personal Numerologist has quite
a few unique features that separate it from the other numerology
programs currently available:
1. Personal Numerologist was offered in the Selective Software catalog.
2. Reports are produced using a sophisticated algorithm that looks at
the entire numerology chart as a whole, producing a synthesis
similar to what a professional numerologist does in a personal
reading. This goes well beyond the "cookbook" approach as used by
other programs.
3. The 6 to 8 page reports are surprisingly accurate and relevant to
the person.
4. Program algorithms and complete report text were written by Matthew
Oliver Goodwin. Goodwin is a highly respected, professional
numerologist. His books, "Numerology: The Complete Guide," volumes 1
and 2 are among the best selling numerology books available today.
He has practiced numerology for over 18 years and has done thousands
of personal readings. The program design and text is a direct result
of his experience.
5. An upgrade path is available for those users that outgrow Personal
Numerologist or require more demanding programs for business use.
This includes getting a $30 credit towards the purchase of
Numerologist Report Writer, the professional version of Personal
Numerologist.
6. Our programs have consistently received outstanding reviews from the
astrology and numerology press.
